The VIT-Smooth Increaser Ø 100-125mm is a versatile connecting pipe designed for use with gas, oil, and solid fuel appliances. Engineered to withstand temperatures up to 600°C, this increaser is made from zero carbon steel with a durable matt black powder vitreous enamel coating. Ideal for connecting your appliance to a Flue Liner, Chimney Stack, or Twin Wall Flue System, the VIT-Smooth should not be used to pass through ceilings or combustible walls.
Installation is straightforward with a friction fit joint, reducing the need for sealing. However, for added security, you can use jointing compound like fire cement or high-temperature silicone sealant. The increaser is also designed to be cut to size, with care taken to cover exposed steel with high-temperature paint to prevent rust.

The VIT-Smooth Increaser Ø 100-125mm is a critical element for any modern flue system. Designed to bridge the gap between different pipe diameters, this increaser is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of high-temperature operations for appliances using gas, oil, or solid fuel. Constructed from premium zero carbon steel and enhanced with a matt black powder enamel finish, it provides not only a robust physical connection but also adds aesthetic appeal to your installation.
Key Features and Their Benefits
- High-Temperature Performance: Operating at temperatures up to 600°C, the increaser ensures that even in demanding conditions, safety and functionality are never compromised.
- Durable Construction: The use of zero carbon steel makes this product exceptionally strong and long-lasting, meaning fewer worries about wear and tear over time.
- Elegant Enamel Coating: The matt black powder enamel protects the steel from corrosion and rust, ensuring your flue system looks as good as it performs.
- Ease of Installation: The friction fit design makes installation straightforward. For additional security, you can enhance the joint integrity by applying a high-temperature jointing compound such as fire cement or silicone sealant.
- Customizable Design: You have the flexibility to cut the increaser to your required length, ensuring a perfect fit for your unique system layout.
Installation Guidelines and Safety Considerations
When installing the VIT-Smooth Increaser, it is essential to adhere to proper installation instructions to guarantee safety and performance:
1. Orientation: Always position the smaller diameter end downwards to prevent condensate build-up. This design helps in the efficient drainage of moisture, maintaining optimal performance.
2. Jointing: The friction fit joint is designed to seal effectively without excessive sealing compounds. However, for an additional layer of security, especially in installations where external pressures may vary, applying a jointing compound is recommended.
3. Cutting and Finishing: If your installation requires the increaser to be cut to a specific size, make sure to cover the newly exposed steel with a high-temperature paint. This precaution prevents corrosion and extends the lifespan of the product.
4. Non-Passage Through Combustibles: It is important to note that the increaser should never be used to pass through ceilings or combustible materials. This product is strictly designed as a connector between flue systems and should always maintain a safe distance from any combustible structures.
Optional Accessories to Enhance Your Setup
While the VIT-Smooth Increaser provides a durable and secure solution for connecting flue systems, consider exploring additional accessories to optimise your installation:
- Jointing Compounds: Enhance installation security with high-temperature fire cement or silicone sealants, particularly in areas prone to temperature fluctuations.
- High-Temperature Paint: Use specialised paint on any cut or exposed areas to prevent rust and degradation, ensuring longevity.
- Accessory Kits: Consider kits that include extra sealing materials and adaptors for more customised installations, making the overall process easier and more efficient.
These accessories are not mandatory; however, having them in your toolkit can offer peace of mind and further ensure the robustness of your flue system.

Absolutely. The VIT-Smooth Increaser is designed to seamlessly integrate with various flue systems, whether you’re using gas, oil, or solid fuel appliances. Its adaptable design means it can be customised to suit your specific needs, ensuring compatibility with multiple configurations.
Is it safe for long-term use?
Yes, the use of high-quality zero carbon steel and a resilient enamel coating ensures that the increaser will stand up to prolonged use in high-temperature environments. This durability helps mitigate the need for frequent replacements, offering both safety and cost-effectiveness in the long run.
How do I maintain it?
Regular maintenance of your entire flue system is key to safety. For solid fuel applications, it is recommended to inspect and clean your chimney at least once a year. Incorporating access doors at changes of direction can further simplify maintenance and inspection, ensuring that all components function optimally.
